READ
REVIEWS ON THIS BOOK!
This is THE BOOK if you wonder why
training your dog is such a chore! Is your dog distracted
or unmotivated? You need FOCUS. Before
you train any specific behaviors, you want to lay
the foundation and convince your dog that working
with you is a great idea. You want a working partner
that is eager and enthusiastic about the games you
play together. Any dog of any age can develop better
FOCUS. Invest in your training foundation
by working through FOCUS exercises,
and the payoff will be huge. Everything else will
be so much easier. The FOCUS program
can be tailored to your individual training needs,
whether your dog is out of control or is not having
enough fun during training. The goal of FOCUS
is to balance your dog’s emotional and arousal
levels so that he can learn quickly and easily. |

The third DVD in the series, Need for Speed, addresses dogs that need more enthusiasm and motivation to perform well. These types of dogs are often sensitive and more cautious; which can lead to fear and avoidance when they are put under even mild pressure. The key to training and showing these types of dogs is to make it more fun. When dogs are having fun they are not stressed and worried. The exercises and ideas in this DVD will lead to a more confident and enthusiastic dog.
